Mulgrew Miller, Buster Williams & Jimmy Cobb – You and the Night & the Music | Jazz Trio Masterpiece

 


This week's Sunday Special.  From Bret "Jazz Video Guy" Primack.

One of the deepest joys of my life has been the privilege of hearing—and sometimes knowing—some of the most extraordinary artists to ever touch sound. Mulgrew Miller was one of those rare spirits. A pianist of astonishing grace, depth, and emotional clarity. In this luminous performance, he’s joined by two legendary masters: the soulful anchor of Buster Williams on bass and the iconic Jimmy Cobb on drums. Together, they take us on a spellbinding journey through You and the Night and the Music, transforming this Great American Songbook classic into something transcendent. This isn’t just a performance—it’s communion. A quiet, swinging miracle of interplay and beauty in motion. 🎹 Piano: Mulgrew Miller 🎻 Bass: Buster Williams 🥁 Drums: Jimmy Cobb 🎶 Tune: You and the Night and the Music (Howard Dietz / Arthur Schwartz)

Songs like "I've Been Lonely Too Long", "Mustang Sally" (Sir Mack Rice's song famously recorded by Wilson Pickett), and "People Got to Be Free" all had t...
